I did some research and of the 4-5 places I contacted, Poetic Endings were very clear and comprehensive from the outset. I have never had to organise any event of this magnitude, let alone a funeral, so this response was very welcome. There also wasn't the feeling of a sale being pushed (I'm looking at you Cooperative) which is the last thing you want at this vulnerable time.
Having then met with Louise, who was very approachable, friendly, compassionate and understanding, the decision to choose Poetic Endings was assured. Every step of the way Louise guided and supported us in the many and various decisions that we had to make. It relieved all the anxiety and pressure and made the process as a whole simple and stress free.
On the day of the service, everything went so smoothly and seamlessly. Again, all the pressure was taken off by how well each detail was organised and as I commented after it was over; 'It really couldn't have gone any better'. We've also had so many people tell us that it was a beautiful service and how very impressed they were at how well organised the whole thing was.
I should also point out that the celebrant we chose through Poetic Endings, Sophie Duval, was incredible as well. From the outset she was warm and friendly and very easy to talk to about dad when planning on what she would say during the service. The way she delivered the service was pitched perfectly with a flawless balance between compassion and humour. It was such an exemplary reflection of my father that many of his life-long friends commented it was as if Sophie had known him.
I hope I will not need either Poetic Endings or Sophie Duval's services again anytime soon, but should I need to, I will most definitely be using them again. I certainly recommend you use them too.
Thank you
